Chapter 17 Las Vegas

The car was parked on the outskirts of Las Vegas, under the sign that said "Las Vegas" in Spanish.

This is a city that blooms from the desert. Even the places close to Licheng District are all original deserts.As long as it loses maintenance for a few years, the city will inevitably be swallowed up by the desert again.

"Ah, what a beautiful day today."

It was already early in the morning.Shangluo took the night bus, and it was seven o'clock in the morning.

"It's the first time I spent the night in a passenger car, and it feels pretty good. Sure enough, everyone's quality is very good after bathing Wanghua. Thank you." After getting out of the car, he turned his head and nodded to the driver.

The driver nodded sharply in return: "Have you brought all your luggage?"

"I didn't bring any luggage, it's all in my pocket. Does your car have a schedule in Las Vegas? I want to take your car when I go back."

The driver slammed the accelerator and fled towards the next stop, before even closing the door.

"Tsk, what's there to be afraid of?"

[Think about it in another way, if there is a Jin Yiwei sitting in my car, I will also be afraid. 】

"Don't worry about this, I have a very realistic but necessary thing to do next."

【what? 】

"I want to go to the bathroom, can you avoid it?"

【avoid?Are you going to throw me out? 】

"No, I mean maybe you can take your eyes back? After all, it would be uncomfortable to be stared at by others."

【Why are you so troublesome? 】

"It's not just about going to the bathroom. There's got to be some privacy between us, right?"

【All right. 】Apolonia said helplessly, 【Take out the music box and take a look and you'll know. 】

His music box was in his pocket, and he took it out and opened the lid as soon as he reached out.

"Huh?" He froze for a moment, the contents of the box changed.There was originally a part inside this music box, which was also what Senator Jefferson called "divine body".Shangluo still remembered what it looked like inside.Inside is a bunch of non-standard parts that make people scalp tingling, and there is a bullet hole in the shell before the "hammer" goes down. .

Now, however, the music box is empty.But inside the dark music box, there seemed to be something shining with golden light.It was a small golden ball the size of a fingernail, and the ball was lying quietly inside.

"Hello? Where's your body? Isn't it in the music box?"

No sound came, and Apollonia lost her response.

He tipped the music box over, and poured the ball onto his hand—the moment he touched the ball, his skin felt tingling like an electric shock, and he subconsciously swung his hand, and the ball the size of a fingernail flew out.

【Look, it's like this... Ah! ! ! 】

As soon as Apollonia said a few words, her voice died down as the ball flew out.A long "Ah——" still lingered in his head.

The next moment, everything was silent.

Not without sound.Standing on the road at the gate of Las Vegas, surrounded by sand.The howling wind, the buzzing of bald eagles, and the roar of the engines of passing vehicles.But only Apollonia's voice was absent.

At this moment, he always felt like a kite with a broken string.Although there is no physical discomfort, the loss of control over the future does make me feel almost drowning.

The hot wind mixed with gravel blows, and the uncrowned hair is disheveled in the wind.

"That golden bean."

He knew the crux of the matter.After the golden bean was thrown away, Apollonia "disappeared".

"Golden beans. Where did the golden beans go?" He lowered his head to search.In the vast desert, there is even dust on the roads.The color of golden beans is very close to the desert under the sun, so it may be difficult to find them.

He anxiously lowered his head to look for it. Fortunately, the golden bean was lying at his feet, and he didn't roll too far.

"It's okay." He breathed a sigh of relief, bent down and stretched out his hand.

This time he was ready.The electric shock came again from the fingertip touching the golden bean——

Apollonia's voice reconnected.

【What are you doing!Scared me!Why are you throwing me out! 】

After reconnecting, Apollonia's voice was full of anger—but there was also a trace of panic and panic in it, as if she was more panicked than Shangluo.

"Who knew you could discharge?"

[I don't know how to discharge at all, that's your psychological effect. 】

"Yes, yes, it's my fault."

【.】

"why do not you talk?"

[Next time, don't throw me away.Only you can hear me, no one else.If you throw me away again, what is waiting for the infinite magic machine "Apolonia" will not be infinite possibilities, but infinite confinement. 】

"Yeah." Shang Luo nodded and didn't say anything more.

When he raised his head again, he felt the air flowing again, and the suffocating feeling of losing control over his fate finally disappeared.

With one hand in his pocket, he kept in touch with the "Golden Bean" with his fingertips.It is true that there is no electricity, but every time Apollonia speaks, there is always an inexplicable feeling in his fingertips.

It felt like someone put a finger between the eyebrows.Obviously there was no contact, but there was a sore and swollen foreign body sensation between the eyebrows.Now this foreign body sensation originated from his fingertips, spread upwards along the fingertips, passed through the heart all the way up.

It's not very comfortable, to be honest.But in order to keep talking, he can get used to it.

"By the way, where is the toilet? Can you look it up?"

【I'm not a wicked navigator, how can I check it for you? How about I help you do a divination?You draw a card first. 】

"I can't do divination for everything, can I? Do I have to do divination with my left foot or right foot before going out? And how can a fortuneteller always predict himself all day long? Wouldn't that shorten his life?"

[There is such a saying? 】

"You don't know? You don't know."

[But your opinion is very important.Maybe I'm always unlucky because I'm always trying to spy on my own destiny.It's better to wait for the critical time to use it. It is not a good thing to use it too trivially.Just like Odin knew that the twilight of the gods would come, he tried to save the fate of the gods, but his struggle made the twilight of the gods closer and closer. 】

"So if I always divination the location of the toilet."

[Although I don't know why, I always feel that you may have the wonderful result of divination 'never find a public toilet'. 】

"Isn't that a curse! If I can never find a public toilet, wouldn't my range of activities be limited to my own home and other people's homes?!"

[That's it, so there is no difference between divination and curse that cannot change the result.You are right, it is better not to do fortune-telling for such a trivial matter of stepping left and right when going out, maybe one day there will be a surprise for you.Find it yourself. 】
